“Hey everyone, it’s Finn Allen here! Super excited to be involved with the San Francisco Unicorns in the inaugural season of the Major League Cricket, this July. It is going to be an exciting time playing cricket out in America. Hope to see you all in Texas soon. Go the Unicorns!” Allen said in the video posted on Twitter.

San Francisco Unicorns begin their campaign on July 14

Speaking about their campaign, San Francisco Unicorns play their first match of the season against MI New York in Texas, on July 14. Notably, former Australia skipper Aaron Finch will lead the franchise during the inaugural edition of the MLC.

The franchise recently signed Pakistan duo Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf upon receiving the green signal from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) as they are not part of Pakistan’s Test squad for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka.

Meanwhile, Corey Anderson, Matthew Wade, Liam Plunkett, and Marcus Stoinis are among other stars who will play for the franchise in the MLC 2023. In addition to that, Shane Watson is part of the set-up as the head coach of Unicorns.
